EtherNet/IP to DNP 3.0 over Ethernet Gateway

5201-DFNT-DNPSNET

The ProLinx EtherNet/IP to DNP over Ethernet Gateway creates a powerful connection between devices on EtherNet/IP and DNP over Ethernet networks. This stand-alone DIN-rail mounted protocol gateway provides one Ethernet port.
The EtherNet/IP protocol driver supports the Explicit Messaging implementation of the protocol. User-configurable as both a Client and a Server, the EtherNet/IP port is a very powerful data transfer tool. The ProLinx module supports the DNP 3.0 protocol as a server using the TCP and UDP protocols using service port 20000. This port is fully configurable.

Caractéristiques Avantages

Applications

The DFNT-DNPSNET gateways are the ideal solution for joining EtherNet/IP and DNP over Ethernet networks. This Ethernet to Ethernet gateway is designed with DFNT Client and Server support and DNP over Ethernet server support, enabling connections between the dissimilar network types. The gateway utilizes a shared database so that the two protocols can quickly transfer data between themselves. Applications for the gateway are found in most industries, especially Manufacturing, Oil and Gas, Electrical Power and Food Processing.

Spécifications

Internal Database

The ProLinx module contains an internal database that consists of areas for application data, status information, and configuration information.

The internal database is shared between all ports on the module and is used as a conduit to pass information from a device on one network to one or more devices on another network.

Application Data Area

The data area is used to store and retrieve data by the protocol drivers and for data exchange between protocols. The database is used as a source for write commands to remote devices and holds data collected from the remote devices. Commands defined in the configuration file (stored in the configuration data area) control how the data is to be handled in the database.

Status Data Area

This area is used to store error codes, counters, and port status information for each port.

Configuration Data Area

This area contains module configuration information such as port configuration, network information, and command configuration. This configuration file is downloaded to, or uploaded from, this area.

Protocoles

DFNT Protocol Specification

The EtherNet/IP protocol driver supports the Explicit Messaging implementation of the protocol. User-configurable as both a Client and a Server, the EtherNet/IP port is a very powerful data transfer tool.

Protocol Specifications

The EtherNet/IP protocol is one of the primary connectivity tools to the different Rockwell Automation platforms. The Explicit Messaging aspect of the protocol (only) has been implemented in the ProLinx units to provide the data transfer link between the ProLinx units and the Rockwell Automation hardware.

General Protocol Information

Messaging

PCCC on CIPExplicit Messaging supported

Miscellaneous

125 word read and write data lengthsFloating point data supported

EtherNet/IP Server Specifications

In Server mode, the module accepts commands from one or more clients to read/write data stored in the module's internal registers.

EtherNet/IP Server Specifications

Connections

Five independent TCP server sockets permit remote clients to interact with all data contained in the module.

In Client mode, the module controls the read/write data transfer between the gateway and other EtherNet/IP devices. Data transfer can be initiated and executed without any ladder programming being required in the Rockwell Automation hardware.

EtherNet/IP Client Specifications

General

One client

Command List

Support for 100 commands, each configurable for command, IP address, register to/from addressing and word/bit count.

Polling of command list

User configurable polling of commands, including disabled, continuous and on change of data (write only).

DNPSNET Protocol Specification

The ProLinx module supports the DNP 3.0 protocol as a server using the TCP and UDP protocols using service port 20000. This port is fully configurable.

Protocol Specifications

The DNPSNET protocol driver exists as a single service port (DNPSNET port 20000) implementation that supports a single TCP port connection and multiple UDP ports on a TCP/IP Ethernet network. The DNPSNET port operates as a server, supporting the DNP 3.0 protocol in a Level 2 implementation using the DNP User Group recommended extension for use on LAN/WAN.
